  • Thats quite of an exaggeration and this can be counteracted.

    It is common, that cows can get hurt by the bull, but these wounds are usually only on the skin (this comes from the bull and other cows continuosly mount a single cow). If the ground however is slippery, it can happen that a cow gets hurt due to slipping when another animal tries to mount her. However counteracting this can be quite easy. Since you as a farmer usually know when a cow is ovulating just put her and the bull in a separate area, that has straw on the ground. At least in germany this is also mandatory (to be exact, its illegal to let the bull walk with the rest of the herd).


  • After taking a second look you might be right. Its kind of hard to see, due to shitty image quality, but they might have insemination rods.

    However, I will not engage in any fundamental discussions about veganism, because its a completely pointless discussion that always ends in throwing shit at each other.

    Why do you care if factory farming is bad?

    Because I’ve seen it all. I know how bad factory farming can be. I was raised on a farm and therefore I would say, that my knowledge about farming is quite big and I know what farming can look like if its done properly.



  • OK, so first of all, what they are doing in this picture is checking if the cows are pregnant. I have never seen someone being table to impregnate cows by sticking their arm up their ass.

    Second thing you should remember: In nature the bull literally does not fucking care. If a cow is ovulating (bulls and cows are able to detect when this is the case), he will literally try to fuck the specific cow the entire fucking day. IRS not like he fucks the cow once and then its done, we are talking about the bull following the cow the whole day and continuously (trying to) fucking her.

    I would argue, that a single small metal rod is less tiring than a horny bull trying to fuck you the whole day.

    And before people are going to throw shit at me: No, this does not mean, that industrial grade factory farming is in any form or shape a good system. I have seen it all and I know how incredibly bad it can be. However, I Am not a fan of throwing the word rape (even if the exact word has not been used here) around, simply because you could somewhat classify the natural process as rape too.
